‘Surely our enemies are destroyed, and fire consumes their wealth.’

For the company of the godless is barren, and fire consumes the tents of those who accept bribes.

By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of his anger they are consumed.

Total darkness waits to receive his treasures; a fire which has not been kindled will consume him and devour what is left in his tent.

The wealth that he consumed he vomits up, God will make him throw it out of his stomach.

In excitement and impatience it consumes the ground; it cannot stand still when the trumpet is blown.

While this one was still speaking, another messenger arrived and said, “The fire of God has fallen from heaven and has burned up the sheep and the servants – it has consumed them! And I – only I alone – escaped to tell you!”

The drought as well as the heat carry away the melted snow; so the grave takes away those who have sinned.

It eats away parts of his skin; the most terrible death devours his limbs.

For it is a fire that devours even to Destruction, and it would uproot all my harvest.

whom I will see for myself, and whom my own eyes will behold, and not another. My heart grows faint within me.

When they are scorched, they dry up, when it is hot, they vanish from their place.

As a cloud is dispersed and then disappears, so the one who goes down to the grave does not come up again.

Calamity is hungry for him, and misfortune is ready at his side.

He will not escape the darkness; a flame will wither his shoots and he will depart by the breath of God’s mouth.

The hungry eat up his harvest, and take it even from behind the thorns, and the thirsty swallow up their fortune.

His flesh wastes away from sight, and his bones, which were not seen, are easily visible.
